ADVERTISEMENT.

THIS Work has been ready for the Press above twelve months, but its appearance has been delayed by causes over which the Author had no control.

The length of the Corrigenda List, which might have been considerably obviated by the Author's inspection of the Press, will, it is hoped, find some excuse in his unavoidable distance from the place of Publication.
